My new little project for testing comp wheels just kicked off. You read lots of conflicting info about different wheels and how they perform so I thought why not give it a crack for myself. I plan to test 11 blade, 5+5, 6+6, 7+7, and maybe 10 blade if I can source one, comp wheel designs all with the same 46/65mm size. I want to see if I can feel any changes in the performance or drivability from actually driving the car. The new CHRA and the first comp wheel design arrived today. I'm quite surprised how light the new wheel is, haven't weighed the factory cast wheel yet to compare. The extended tips of the new wheel makes it look much larger than the original, it's a bit higher in blade height too but the most noticable difference that really stood out to me was how much smaller the nose/shaft is that the blades come out from.
That should definitely relieve some EMP, no doubt a ton of turbine drive too.
